Besides the priest, only an ordained catholic Deacon.
Roman Catholic AnswerUsually the celebrant, the priest (or Bishop) presiding at the Eucharist, reads the Gospel, so the question should probably read: "who, besides the presiding priest (or Bishop) may proclaim the Gospel?" And the answer would be: any other concelebrant bishop or priest; or any other bishop or priest at the Mass; or a deacon. And only a bishop, priest, or deacon may ever proclaim the Gospel at Mass.Wiki User

The Homily follows the Gospel Reading in a typical Mass service. It is basically where the priest explains the Gospel Reading and talks about the faith you are at Mass to pursue. It usually lasts around 10-15 mins. A Homily can also be called the Sermon.
What comes after the homily in the mass?
The readings end with the Gospel, which is followed immediately by the Homily. Right after the Homily the priest and congregation renew their faith by reciting the Nicene Creed (at most Sunday Masses and Solemnities). On a weekday that is not a Solemnity (major feast) the homily would be followed by the Intercessions.

What do you do in the Liturgy of the Word?
One essentially listens to the Word of God, attentively. The Liturgy of the Word is God actually speaking to you through His priests and ministers. As it is God, Himself, who is speaking to you, you need to listen with reverence, respect, and your full attention. The readings are taken, one from the Old Testament, one from the writings of the apostles (N/A for Weekday Masses), and one from the Gospel. This is followed by the Homily. Both the Gospel and the Homily are said by only the priest.
